Fidel's Legacy or LOL at the Socialist Utopia

[Ernie S.]

The Russian-made jeep carrying the ashes of the late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro broke down in the middle of his funeral procession on Saturday, forcing soldiers to push the vehicle until it could be repaired.

This is the perfect end to Fidel Castro and his revolution. Before he took over, Cuba was the most prosperous nation in the Caribbean. His effect on his nation is best illustrated by soldiers pushing his remains trough Havana.

If Batista was so great, why did he get overthrown by his own people?

 

[WheelieAddict]

Isn't Trump going to expand trade with Cuba?

You are mistaken; before the revolution the only money in Cuba was from Americans visiting to play at casinos and hire prostitutes which many mothers and their daughters had to do due to poverty. CIA money kept the fiendish dictator, Bautista, in place and the island was a police state with mafia links. The revolution and Castro's leadership brought back dignity to the people and now the island boasts food and shelter for all as well as free education and health care from some of the world's finest doctors ... and all this despite an invasion by the CIA and their paid Cuban traitors who got a whipping and decades of a US embargo. It is little wonder that ordinary Cubans loved Fidel.

If Batista was so great, why did he get overthrown by his own people?

Just like Iran apologists. Somehow going from bad to worse is supposed to be improvement.

 

[Ernie S.]

Are all History books written by Liberals? No Batista wasn't great, but Cuban progress stopped in 1959.

 

[Grandma]

Watch the movie Godfather II.

Cuba was a neutral zone, a sort of United Nations, on a different scale...

 

[Ridgerunner]

Isn't Trump going to expand trade with Cuba?

Wouldn't take much to expand on this... Fitting end to a tin pot dictator...

 

[S.J.]

A fitting tribute to a failed system and it's dictator.

 

[CrusaderFrank]

And the number of Americans, no matter how poor, hopping an inner tube from Miami to Cuba, is still zero

You can't help but laugh at this shit.

I wouldn't have pushed the Jeep.

I'd have walked away laughing.

Nice way to take selective facts from history and ignore others that don't fit your preconceived ideology. Hoards of people have escaped or tried to escape the food and shelter provided for them since Castro took over. Your last statement is so funny it negates any tiny kernel of truth that might have existed in the fairy tale you posted.

I agree with you Fidel Castro did something good for Cuba. Unfortunately he also did something bad.
But maybe that's inevitable. We're all humans and Fidel Castro was a human too
I think you're wrong when you say "ordinary Cubans loved Fidel". Not all of them loved Fidel.
Of course I'm just saying my opinion. I don't think this is some kind of "truth"

Had one and drove it from Sheppard Air Force Base to Altus AFB.

I opened the trunk and lifted up my duffle bag and all of my bdu's, and personal effects were ruined.

There was a battery in the trunk and it turned over. Battery acid everywhere.

My blues were shredded.

Had to buy 4 new sets of clothing.
